A nuanced portrait of a great historical figure considered everything from a “God-haunted man” to a “stalwart nonbeliever” What did faith mean to Winston Churchill? Churchill was far from transparent about his religious beliefs and never regularly attended church services as an adult, even considering himself “not a pillar of the church but a buttress,” in the sense that he supported it “from the outside.” But Gary Scott Smith assembles pieces of Churchill’s life and words to convey the profound sense of duty and destiny, partly inspired by his religious convictions, that undergirded his outlook. Reflecting on becoming prime minister in 1940, he wrote, “It felt as if I were walking with destiny, and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this hour and for this trial.” In a similarly grand fashion, he described opposing the Nazis—and later the Soviets—as a struggle between light and darkness, driven by the duty to preserve “humane, enlightened, Christian society.” Though Churchill harbored intellectual doubts about Christianity throughout his life, he nevertheless valued it greatly and drew on its resources, especially in the crucible of war. In Duty and Destiny, Smith unpacks Churchill’s paradoxical religious views and carefully analyzes the complexities of his legacy. This thorough examination of Churchill’s religious life provides a new narrative structure to make sense of one of the most important figures of the twentieth century.

"Walter Frere was one of the great scholarly church leaders of the early twentieth century, yet he has remained something of an enigma. Although expert in many different areas of study, only a few specialists value his work today. As a co-founder of the Community of the Resurrection his influence is everywhere, though he operated from behind the scenes. This long-awaited book aims to make Frere and the great range of his ability, interests and legacy better known. It includes: a masterly overview of his life and character; a reflection on his spirituality that was at once ascetic, studious and practical in the service of the disadvantaged; his outstanding record as a teacher; his innovative vision of the priesthood; an exploration of the controversy he aroused in his exercise of episcopacy; his pioneering ecumenical work in the Malines conversations and his sadness that more was not accomplished; his profound influence on the Revised Prayer Book of 1928 and his vision of its potential to satisfy pastoral needs and heal divisions in the Anglican Communion; his enduring influence as a founder of the Community of the Resurrection"--Publisher's description, back cover
